Great Corporations
No Trust Political Sample Cigar Label. A determined Roman calmly prepares to brain a struggling dragon with a hammer. At their feet are spilled cigars, an overflowing bag of gold coins, and scattered tobacco leaves. Factory and domestic scenes complete the graphics. In 1890, the Sherman Antitrust Act was passed to prevent the formation of monopolies detrimental to consumer welfare. Populist opposition to the excesses of railroad and oil barons. The great corporations which we have grown to speak of rather loosely as trusts are the creatures of the State, and the State not only has the right to control them, but it is duty bound to control them wherever the need of such control is shown. Theodore Roosevelt, President of the United States
